soooo MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU, MY BELOVED ARTISTS!


see you soon!!

hi there! So long

First of all, I'm superexcited about Halloween! This will be the first time I'll wear a dress made my myself!
I'm going to be a twisted psycho Alice something like this [link] [link]


Here in Italy Halloween is not much celebrated, but I love it! Hope my dear friends will find some costumes too

any other news: I've finally reached my running time record, an HOUR! I'm so proud of myself altough my legs still hurt a bit


so, what are you going to do for Halloween? I'm curios!

Studying again...

I've just finished watching one of the best anime I've ever seen: Welcome to the NHK
really, never been so sad for a long time...

It's about the life of a young Hikkikomori and his friends who try to save him from his condition...
but what is an Hikkikomori?

It's a sad reality. In Japan, a lot of young students give up their studies and can't find a job, ending up locking themselves in a room, forever. Scared of everybody, scared of living, they'll lie in isolation, forgotten by all.

A really sad story -I cried so many times- but for once, a true story of life.

warmly recommended
